So we have quarter notes which is the tempo of the song and the triplets which is one beat divided through 3 or sextoles which is one beat divided through 6 and adaptations from that like the shuffle groove which is the first and the third triplet played or quarter trippets which is the first, the third and the second of 2 triplets played.
